  • Luke Parry and Andrea Harris Jr. Team Up to Disrupt Digital-First Industries

    Luke Parry and Andrea Harris Jr. Team Up to Disrupt Digital-First Industries

    NEW YORK CITY, NY / ACCESS Newswire / June 17, 2025 / Influencer Luke Parry and entrepreneur Andrea Harris Jr. have officially announced a strategic business partnership that aims to reshape the digital landscape. With plans to launch a series of ventures spanning fashion, social technology and influencer marketing, the duo intends to capitalize on some of the fastest-growing sectors in today’s economy.

    The collaboration marks a significant milestone for both Parry and Harris Jr., combining creative influence with operational expertise to build what they describe as “a portfolio of brands designed for the future of consumer behavior.”

    A Digital-Era Alliance

    Parry, known for his cinematic content, emotional storytelling and influential presence across social platforms, brings a powerful cultural pulse to the partnership. Harris Jr., a strategist and product developer with a background in early-stage startups and brand architecture, brings the operational clarity and business infrastructure necessary to scale quickly.

    “We’re not just launching products-we’re launching ecosystems,” Harris Jr. said. “Everything we do is designed to connect, convert and cultivate long-term consumer relationships.”

    The partnership will center around three key verticals: fashion, dating and digital influence. Each reflects both the cultural relevance of their personal brands and the broader economic trends fueling growth in these industries.

    Targeting High-Growth Markets

    The fashion sector is expected to exceed $1.2 trillion globally by 2027, with significant growth coming from direct-to-consumer models, gender-fluid design and sustainability-focused brands. Parry and Harris Jr. intend to leverage this momentum by launching a fashion brand that centers individuality, self-expression and eco-conscious production.

    “The fashion industry is overdue for reinvention,” Parry said. “Consumers want transparency, story and design they can see themselves in. We’re going to deliver that.”

    Equally high on their agenda is the dating and relationship technology space, which has seen explosive demand in recent years. According to Statista, the global online dating market is projected to surpass $12 billion by 2030, fueled by younger users seeking more personalized, secure and experience-driven platforms.

    Parry and Harris Jr. plan to launch a new dating app that focuses on compatibility, conversation and community-pushing back against the often impersonal swipe-based culture of traditional apps.

    “We’re creating something that fosters genuine connection,” Harris Jr. said. “This isn’t gamification. It’s human-first technology.”

    Influencer Marketing 2.0

    In addition to launching consumer-facing products, the pair intends to build out a new model for influencer marketing-one that prioritizes authenticity, long-term partnerships and co-creation.

    With global influencer marketing spend projected to reach $32 billion by 2026, they see an opportunity to set a new standard. The partnership includes plans to develop proprietary tools that connect creators with brands through transparent, equity-based relationships.

    “We understand this space from both sides,” Parry said. “We’ve been the talent. We’ve built the content. Now we’re building the infrastructure.”

    The goal is to support emerging influencers while also helping legacy brands connect to new audiences more effectively.

    Designed for Longevity

    While the ventures are still in early stages, both founders emphasized that the long-term vision is to build enduring brands-not momentary hype.

    Each business under their collaboration will follow a phased launch strategy, with beta testing and community involvement playing a central role in development. The duo has already begun assembling a cross-disciplinary advisory team of technologists, designers and brand operators.

    “We’re playing the long game,” Harris Jr. said. “This is about solving real problems and building value at scale.”

    Consumer-Centric, Value-Driven

    Whether in fashion, dating or digital influence, the partners share a deep focus on user experience, ethical practices and cultural relevance. They aim to build not just brands-but belief systems that consumers can trust and participate in.

    By staying agile and focused on underserved markets, they believe they can create category-defining experiences that resonate with a new generation of consumers.

    Looking Ahead

    As anticipation builds, Parry and Harris Jr. will spend the next several months developing brand strategy, platform infrastructure and early partnerships ahead of phased launches beginning in 2026.

    Public announcements and product previews are expected later this year, with early access opportunities available to subscribers through their forthcoming platform.

    “This is the future of brand-building,” Parry said. “It’s bold. It’s personal. And it’s just the beginning.”

  • Applied DNA Announces Retirement of Chairperson and CEO Dr. James A. Hayward

    Applied DNA Announces Retirement of Chairperson and CEO Dr. James A. Hayward

    President and COO Judy Murrah Appointed New Chairperson of the Board of Directors and CEO

    STONY BROOK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / June 17, 2025 / Applied DNA Sciences, Inc. (NASDAQ:APDN) (“Applied DNA” or the “Company”), a leader in PCR-based DNA technologies, today announced that Chairperson and Chief Executive Officer Dr. James A. Hayward is retiring from the Company and will step down from the Board of Directors effective June 18, 2025, following a distinguished 20-year term. During his tenure, Dr. Hayward was instrumental in transforming the Company’s proprietary DNA production and detection technologies into commercial platforms, thereby establishing the foundation for Applied DNA’s current market offerings.

    Furthermore, the Board of Directors of Applied DNA has appointed Judy Murrah to the roles of Chairperson, Board Director, and Chief Executive Officer in addition to retaining her current position as President. Ms. Murrah will lead the executive management team, which comprises Clay Shorrock, Chief Legal Officer and President of LineaRx, the Company’s biotherapeutics subsidiary, and Beth Jantzen, Chief Financial Officer.

    With over a decade of operational leadership at Applied DNA, Ms. Murrah has been influential in driving product commercialization, business scaling, and, more recently, the launch of the Company’s GMP-compliant DNA manufacturing capabilities. She was previously with Symbol Technologies (“Symbol”), where she played key roles in the company’s growth from an early-stage company to an enterprise with approximately $2 billion in revenue and 5,000 employees, holding successive Vice President positions across Sales, Marketing, and Information Technology. Following Symbol’s acquisition by Motorola, Inc. (“Motorola”), she held strategic leadership roles at Motorola, overseeing critical financial management, quality, and program management initiatives during significant business transformations, mergers, acquisitions, and divestitures. Ms. Murrah is an inventor on 14 U.S. patents and holds an MBA from Harvard Business School.

    Board Director Robert C. Catell stated, “On behalf of all the employees of the Company and the Board of Directors, I offer sincere thanks to Jim for his many years of scientific innovation, personal contribution, and passion he brought to Applied DNA. His accomplishments and impact are wide-ranging and will endure with the Applied DNA team and the local Long Island community.”

    Continued Mr. Catell, “Judy has played an increasingly key role in recent years and has helped to grow who we are today as a company. Applied DNA is poised for opportunity with an established biotherapeutic manufacturing capability that we believe is proven to address the manufacturing challenges identified by the industry. Driving it to deployment and scale with customers, partners, and regulators is our next mission, and the Board is confident that Judy’s leadership will put the Company on the best path forward to maximize long-term shareholder value.”

    Added Ms. Murrah, “I am honored to take on the Chairperson and CEO roles and lead our associates and Applied DNA forward at this important inflection point, as we focus on our most promising aspects of our businesses, drive increased operating efficiency, and navigate the current macro environment.”

    About Applied DNA Sciences

    Applied DNA Sciences is a biotechnology company developing technologies to produce and detect deoxyribonucleic acid (“DNA”). Using the polymerase chain reaction (“PCR”) to enable both the production and detection of DNA, we operate in two business markets: (i) the enzymatic manufacture of synthetic DNA for use in the production of nucleic acid-based therapeutics and the development and sale of a proprietary RNA polymerase (“RNAP”) for use in the production of mRNA therapeutics; and (ii) the detection of DNA and RNA in molecular diagnostics and genetic testing services.

    The Adventurous Galleria will spotlight a Free Navajo Photography Exhibit. Visitors can explore a diverse set of images that capture the landscapes and traditions of the Navajo people. This exhibit not only aims to spark interest in the area’s natural beauty but also deepens appreciation for the cultural heritage of the Navajo community.

    “We are thrilled to share the stories of Navajo land through our gallery,” says Brenda Terris of Lionel Bigthumb Visuals. “This space is more than just a display of photographs; it’s a glimpse into the world of the Navajo people and the beauty that we are privileged to call home.”

What started as a role supporting the family’s tourism efforts evolved into a larger vision. Over the past few years, Lionel and his team have expanded operations under The Adventurous Group (TheAdventurousGroup.com), branching out beyond Page, Arizona to include locations in Sedona, Monument Valley, and Southern Utah.

  • Head to Toe Healthcare Center Expands Shockwave Therapy Services

    Head to Toe Healthcare Center Expands Shockwave Therapy Services

    Head to Toe Healthcare is excited to announce that it is expanding its shockwave therapy services.

    TUCSON, AZ / ACCESS Newswire / June 17, 2025 / Head to Toe Healthcare, PLC, led by founder and medical director Dr. Alan Shih, has announced the expansion of its shockwave therapy services, bringing globally informed, non-invasive treatment options to more patients in Southern Arizona.

    This milestone comes on the heels of Dr. Shih’s recent participation in the 25th World Congress of the International Society for Medical Shockwave Treatment, held in South Korea. There, he engaged with leading practitioners and researchers to deepen his understanding of the fast-evolving field of shockwave therapy and its growing potential across multiple areas of medicine.

    “Attending the World Congress was a reminder that the U.S. still has a lot of catching up to do in this space,” said Dr. Shih. “In Europe and Asia, shockwave therapy is a standard option for many conditions. I’m committed to bringing those advancements here to Tucson, to evolve faster than the average and offer my patients the best care available.”

    Shockwave therapy, originally developed as a derivative of lithotripsy (a treatment for kidney stones), uses high-energy sound waves to stimulate healing in musculoskeletal tissues. The treatment is completely non-invasive (the skin is not pierced) and has been shown to decrease scar tissue, improve microcirculation, and accelerate recovery times, often without the need for surgery.

    At Head to Toe Healthcare, Dr. Shih primarily utilizes shockwave therapy to treat chronic conditions such as Achilles tendonitis and plantar fasciitis, but he is also pioneering its use in other challenging cases, including neuropathy, an area of his clinical expertise.

    One of the most appealing aspects of the treatment is its efficacy. When Dr. Shih recommends that his patients engage in the shockwave procedure, it takes roughly 10-15 minutes, once a week, over a span of four weeks in many cases. “Many report feeling significant relief even after the first treatment. Some have dealt with pain for years, and now they’re walking out of here feeling better than they thought possible.”

    According to a recent article by the Journal of the American Medical Association, it usually takes around 17 years for evidence to change practice within the medical field delay Dr. Shih finds unacceptable. “If we wait that long, we’re doing our patients a disservice,” he said. “My goal is to constantly evaluate what’s working globally and bring it into practice today, not tomorrow.”

    With this latest expansion, Dr. Shih and his team are actively pursuing additional applications of shockwave therapy and are focused on refining treatment protocols for neuropathy and other difficult-to-treat conditions. The healthcare center is also gathering ongoing patient feedback to better measure long-term outcomes and push the frontier of what’s possible with the therapy.

    Dr. Shih’s dedication to lifelong learning and innovation has earned him praise throughout Tucson’s medical community, and his patients are feeling the results.

    “It’s been astonishing to see our patients getting better after treating them with shockwave therapy,” says Dr. Shih. “My patients are getting better at a much faster rate without the need for surgery. Some of the people I have treated have been suffering for years, and the use of shockwave has allowed them to feel much better, something they didn’t think was possible.”

    “It’s been astonishing to see our patients getting better after treating them with shockwave therapy,” said Dr. Shih. “We’re seeing improvements that would typically take months, if not require surgery, happen within weeks. That’s the kind of impact every doctor dreams of making.”

    As Head to Toe Healthcare continues to grow its offerings, Dr. Shih remains focused on one mission: providing effective, evidence-based, and future-forward care for every patient who walks through the door.

  • EquityMultiple Releases Mid-Year Outlook: CRE After Tariffs and Potential Opportunities

    EquityMultiple Releases Mid-Year Outlook: CRE After Tariffs and Potential Opportunities

    NEW YORK CITY, NY / ACCESS Newswire / June 17, 2025 / EquityMultiple, a real estate investment platform for accredited investors, recently released its comprehensive mid-year market outlook examining how rapidly shifting U.S. trade policy is creating both challenges and opportunities across commercial real estate markets.

    Cover of Second Half Outlook Whitepaper

    The report, titled “2025 Second Half Outlook: Market Trends & Voice of the Investor Survey Results,” analyzes the impact of new tariffs on the four core commercial real estate asset classes and provides strategic guidance for investors navigating heightened market volatility. EquityMultiple notes that while tariffs on building materials could present construction challenges, a reduction in new supply competition could benefit existing properties and create opportunities.

    The platform’s thesis is straightforward: taking stock of one’s own risk tolerance and diversifying whenever possible is the most prudent approach to investing in uncertain times.

    Economic Backdrop Drives Strategic Shifts

    The outlook comes as investors grapple with the economic impact of new U.S. tariffs, which led to what the Wall Street Journal described as “one of the wildest weeks in market history” following their April 2 announcement. Despite tariff-related pressures, inflation has slowed more than expected, with the Consumer Price Index increasing just 2.3% year-over-year as of April – its lowest rate since 2021.

    The Federal Reserve has adopted a “wait and see” approach, holding interest rates steady at 4.25% to 4.5%, with JPMorgan Chase strategists predicting potential rate cuts in the second half of the year.

    Sector Analysis Reveals Mixed Outlook

    EquityMultiple’s analysis highlights varying impacts across commercial real estate sectors:

    • Industrial emerges as a “bright spot,” with Moody’s projecting 3% annual rent growth in 2025-2026-the highest among major CRE property types

    • Multifamily may benefit from reduced new construction competition in the future, with improved fundamentals including lower vacancy rates and rising rents

    • Office shows signs of recovery with 39% higher transaction volumes year-over-year in Q1 according to CoStar, driven by return-to-office mandates

    • Retail remains “remarkably stable” despite some retailer sentiment concerns following tariff announcements

    Geographic Performance Varies Widely

    The report identifies significant regional variations, with New York posting over 1 million square feet of positive office absorption and Dallas-Fort Worth leading in both retail and industrial absorption. Conversely, Los Angeles lost 3.1 million square feet of retail space, which reflects broader e-commerce trends.

    Investor Sentiment Remains Cautiously Optimistic

    According to EquityMultiple’s investor survey data included in the report, a plurality of investors feel “about the same” about their portfolios versus last year and plan to maintain similar investment levels, suggesting measured confidence despite market uncertainty.

    Strategic Recommendations Emphasize Diversification

    The outlook reinforces EquityMultiple’s long-standing emphasis on diversification across asset classes and geographic markets. It underscores that diversification and understanding risk tolerance are the key strategies for navigating the current fast-moving environment, particularly as global trade disruptions and policy uncertainty create both challenges and opportunities for long-term investment.

    EquityMultiple continues to offer investors access to commercial real estate opportunities across its three investment pillars – Keep, Earn, and Grow – spanning multiple asset classes and markets through partnerships with vetted sponsors nationwide. The platform was recently recognized as the “Best Real Estate Crowdfunding Site for Transparency” by Investopedia.

    About EquityMultiple

    EquityMultiple’s mission is to guide investors toward a stronger, more diversified portfolio. EquityMultiple brings accredited investors curated real estate private equity and private credit offerings, broadening and streamlining access to CRE. Founded in 2015, EquityMultiple has completed 250 transactions totaling over $21 billion in total capitalization across 142 markets nationwide. For more information, visit equitymultiple.com.

  • COCO On The Go Celebrates 10 Years of Confident, Couture-Infused Athleisure

    COCO On The Go Celebrates 10 Years of Confident, Couture-Infused Athleisure

    From a spark of inspiration in Brazil to closets across the country, COCO On The Go marks a decade of redefining elevated athleisure, and dressing the women who move the world.

    LOS ANGELES, CA / ACCESS Newswire / June 17, 2025 / This year marks the 10th anniversary of COCO On The Go, the luxury athleisure brand known for blending everyday movement with head-turning design. Worn by some of LA’s most stylish women – from TV personalities to tastemakers and wellness insiders – COCO has become synonymous with the kind of confidence you can feel, stretch, and live in.

    Founder Nicole Bowyer, the visionary behind COCO On The Go‘s fashion-forward athleisure. Photo by Frankie Batista Studio.

    Founded in 2015 by Nicole Bowyer, the idea for COCO began on a trip to Brazil where Bowyer was struck by the unapologetic confidence of women embracing their bodies without hesitation. That moment became the heartbeat of the brand: helping women silence self-criticism and get dressed without judgment.

    Ten years later, COCO has evolved into a lifestyle staple, found in exclusive locations like LifeTime Fitness, MGM Resorts like Aria and the prestigious Cosmopolitan. The elevated brand is a favorite of The Real Housewives of Orange County and other influential women across wellness, fashion, and media. With its signature silk-blend jacquard, sculpting silhouettes, and breathable four-way stretch, each piece is made to move, taking women seamlessly from workout to work, errands to evening.

    “There’s nothing more powerful than a woman who feels good in her skin,” says Bowyer. “COCO was created to give women that feeling, every single day.”

    COCO’s journey has been anything but ordinary. In the early days, Bowyer and her mom once spent hours hand heat-pressing logos onto garments after receiving a shipment with missing labels. That same resourcefulness and love still drives the brand today.

    As COCO On The Go enters its next decade, the brand is setting its sights on expanded retail presence, including the launch of its first brick-and-mortar location. With aspirations to be carried by top-tier retailers like Neiman Marcus, Saks Fifth Avenue, and Nordstrom, COCO is ready to bring its signature blend of movement, versatility, and modern femininity to women across the globe.

The Enstream funding is a revenue sharing and volumetric funding arrangement as described in the Enstream LOI Press Release dated March 20, 2025, which may be accessed on the Company’s website.

    Due to weakened oil prices over the past two and half months, Enstream reduced their original funding for the cash obligations to the Seller and to the senior secured lender, First International Bank & Trust (“FIBT”). The Seller and FIBT cooperatively worked with EON to achieve an excellent outcome for all parties to retire these obligations.

    Key aspects of the agreement with Seller (as amended) are:

    • The retirement of a promissory note to Seller in the original principal amount of $15.0 million plus accrued interest of approximately $4.0 million for the amended cash obligation of $7.0 million (reduced from $8.0 million in the February 2025 agreement).

    • The purchase from Seller of a 10% Overriding Royalty Interest (“ORRI”) in the Company’s oil field property for the amended cash obligation of $13.5 million (reduced from $14.0 million in the February 2025 agreement).

    • The repurchase of 100% of preferred units held by Seller in EON’s subsidiary that has a redemption value of approximately $27 million. The amended purchase obligation is 1.5 million shares of Class A Common Stock (reduced from 3.0 million shares in the February 2025 agreement).

    • The total consideration payable to Pogo/Seller in connection with the restructuring consists of the issuance of 1.5 million shares of EON’s Class A Common Stock to the Seller together with $20.5 million in cash inclusive of and for the purchase of the ORRI in the Company’s oil field property and satisfaction of approximately $40 million in debt and other obligations.

    • The agreement, as amended, is subject to various closing conditions, including, without limitation, that the Company obtain adequate financing to fund the cash consideration portion, and that the agreement shall terminate if the closing does not take place by September 15, 2025. The amendment contains mutual general releases that became effective June 13, 2025, upon execution of the amendment.

    “Over the past 18 months, EON has continued to develop its Grayburg-Jackson Oil Field by reinvesting available cash flow into field enhancements,” said Dante Caravaggio, President and CEO of EON. “The overhang from our De-SPAC transaction in terms of one-time expenses, and a very complicated and burdened balance sheet, has restricted our ability to unlock the underlying potential and value of our assets. This transaction should create immediate value for our stockholders.”

    About the Grayburg-Jackson Oil Field Property

    LH Operating, LLC (“LHO”), a wholly owned subsidiary of EON, operates its holdings in New Mexico of oil and gas waterflood production comprising 13,700 contiguous leasehold acres, 342 producing wells and 207 injection wells situated on 20 federal and 3 state leases in the Grayburg-Jackson Oil Field. The Grayburg-Jackson Oil Field is located on the Northwest Shelf of the prolific Permian Basin in Eddy County, New Mexico.

    Leasehold rights of LHO include the Seven Rivers, Queen, Grayburg and San Andres intervals that range from as shallow as 1,500 feet to 4,000 feet in depth. The December 2024 reserve report from our third-party engineer, Haas and Cobb Petroleum Consultants, LLC (“Haas & Cobb” or “Cobb”), reflects LHO to have proven reserves of approximately 14.0 million barrels of oil and 2.8 billion cubic feet of natural gas. The mapped original-oil-in-place (“OOIP”) in the LHO leasehold is approximately 876 million barrels of oil in the Grayburg and San Andres intervals and 80 million barrels in the Seven Rivers interval for a total OOIP of approximately 956,000,000 barrels of oil.

    Our primary production is currently from the Seven Rivers zone. In addition to proven reserves, the Company believes it may access an additional 34 million barrels of oil by adding perforations in the Grayburg and San Andres formations. With proven oil reserves of over 15 million barrels, combined with the potential 34 million additional barrels from the Grayburg and San Andres zones, LHO should produce oil and a revenue stream for more than two decades with a low decline rate.

  • GovRecover Reaches $16.2M in Forgotten Funds Recovered, Disrupting One of America’s Most Overlooked Financial Gaps-One Dollar at a Time

    GovRecover Reaches $16.2M in Forgotten Funds Recovered, Disrupting One of America’s Most Overlooked Financial Gaps-One Dollar at a Time

    Georgia-Based Startup is Redefining How Everyday Americans Reclaim Forgotten Assets from Institutions That Lost Touch

    ATLANTA, GA / ACCESS Newswire / June 17, 2025 / GovRecover, a licensed, tech-enabled asset recovery service, announced today it has surpassed $16.2 million in recovered funds-less than a year after its founding in June 2024. Making a meaningful difference for everyday Georgians, the bootstrapped startup is modernizing one of the most outdated and overlooked areas of personal finance using cutting-edge tools and human-first support.

    GovRecover is shining a light on a financial blind spot many Americans don’t even realize exists-a hidden ecosystem of forgotten bank accounts, uncashed checks, insurance payouts, and dormant assets that quietly transfer to institutional holding accounts after periods of inactivity. These funds often fall through the cracks due to outdated addresses, name changes, or administrative oversight. Once assets are deemed abandoned, they’re frequently held by institutions-including government agencies and state departments-that rarely notify the rightful owners and, in many cases, are allowed to hold onto the money indefinitely.

    “Most people have no idea they’re owed money-sometimes thousands of dollars-because the system isn’t designed to proactively return it,” said Ricky Maldonado, Co-Founder and CEO of GovRecover. “For everyday Americans, that money can mean groceries, rent, or a sense of financial security. We created GovRecover to fix a broken process and bring it into the modern era. With powerful technology, clear communication, and zero upfront costs, we’re turning what used to be a bureaucratic black hole into something empowering, transparent, and human.”

    GovRecover offers a risk-free, no-upfront-cost model powered by proprietary search tools, SMS support, and a streamlined digital-first experience. Recovering funds is as simple as verifying your identity and letting GovRecover’s team handle the paperwork-through to the moment a check arrives in your mailbox.

    Here’s how it works:

    • Discovery – Funds are identified through deep searches of institutional and government-held databases.

    • Outreach – GovRecover contacts the rightful owner or responds to inbound inquiries.

    • Verification – Identity is confirmed to prevent fraud.

    • Processing – The GovRecover team manages all filings and paperwork.

    • Recovery – Once the claim is approved, the individual receives the funds. Only then does GovRecover collect a commission-if you don’t get paid, they don’t get paid.

    By removing friction, risk, and red tape, GovRecover is transforming what was once a painful and opaque process into a secure, seamless experience.

    “GovRecover helped me to get back a life insurance policy that I thought was long gone,” said Michelle G. from Atlanta.
